Error: Unable to load the requested class - Kizaru - 04-12-2019

Greetings,
I'm doing a web page project that is about printing shipping labels using PHP and easypost API. However I'm having trouble trying to load the library in the controller.

The client php library is on a folder called vendor and it looks like this
vendor/
composer
easypost/easypost-php/lib

Inside the lib folder it looks like this
EasyPost (folder)
cacert.pem
easypost.php

I moved the content inside the lib folder to the application library folder

So after that I tried to load the library in my Shipping.php controller
This is my construct inside shipping controller
PHP Code:
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper('url''form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');

$this->load->library('EasyPost/easypost');



However i get an error
Unable to load the requested class: EasyPost

This is the EasyPost.php code
PHP Code:

the easypost.php that's not inside the EasyPost folder has this code
PHP Code:

if (!function_exists('curl_init')) {
  throw new Exception('EasyPost needs the CURL PHP extension.');
}
if (!
function_exists('json_decode')) {
  throw new Exception('EasyPost needs the JSON PHP extension.');
}

// Config and Utilities
require(dirname(__FILE__) . '/EasyPost/EasyPost.php');
require(
dirname(__FILE__) . '/EasyPost/Util.php');
require(

require(

require(

require(
dirname(__FILE__) . '/EasyPost/Webhook.php'); 
if i use require_once("application/vendor/easypost/easypost-php/lib/easypost.php");
then everything works fine. But to complete the project I'm required to load the library using codeigniter. 

So what am I doing wrong?

@Kizaru,

What version of CI are you using? If you are using CI 3.x the library loader is expecting a class not a namespace. Check the forums for solutions that will allow you to use namespaces.
